[Q] Swype bug with Entropy Driver. Any concurences? - AT&T Samsung Galaxy S II SGH-I777

Hey peoples,
I have Serendipity 8.0 (same has happened on UnNamed.) Both roms use the same kernel (entropy) Let me begin by saying that the Entropy kernel is amazing. I have noticed a minor annoyance and that is the touchscreen driver I suppose has some sort of bug. I blame it on the kernel because I reflashed to full stock and problem is non existent. When you first flash the custom rom it seems to be working ok however on the next restart, it starts. The problem is the "swype line" is not rendered smoothly and feel the "android" keyboard is a tad off calibration. when I swype my finger the blue line starts to zig zag.. not consistetly the same pattern but its not straight like it should be. do you guys feel that it maybe because of undervoltage? It seems like a silly theory considering we have a dual core lol. I'm sorry if my terminology is off, just trying to get my point across.
yes, I wiped/factory before installing the rom.
Has anybody else experienced this? thanks for the posts guys.

Honestly, I have experienced this. I thought it was just me but maybe it is something else. It definitely starts to zig zag creating a lot of errors in my texts. haha

Just checked it on mine. And does not have it. I'm running stock rom with only thing I've done is install Entropy512's kernel.

well i did a fresh install of unNamed 1.0.4 with entropy and I dont seem to have it anymore. I would do nandroid backup and restores so maybe stuff would get fowled up. Will post again if it happens again. I would definetely do a fresh install.
wipe/factory reset
wipe cache parition
wipe dalvik cache.
install rom.

Does anyone get the issue of the cursor jumping to the left? Sometimes when I try to go to the end of my message the cursor moves on its own, often highlighting words along the way.

Your guys are awesome. I still can't get used to this. I had to uninstall this and use the regular samsung/android keyboard.

Odin. That is all I m going to say.
yes, i know exactly whats happening...i think
when you apply the voodoo, listen for linda saying she's going to apply extension for optimize 4, then step 1. this process takes about 5 minutes and it will sit on the white vibrant screen for what seems forever. just hang tight and it'll reboot
however, since you stopped the process in the middle, you might need to ODIN to stock. but try reapplying the voodoo lagfix. i hope it works for
this is all in the voodoo thread. Its been happening to people since day one with voodoo. I got voodoo to work once, and it was nice, but I like the convenience of z4mod. Same deal, but instead of being activated when you install the kernel it modifies your kernel so it supports ext 2 3 or 4 then allows you to change file systems by flashing a zip. And the fact that z4mod can change dbdata and cache as well is nice too.

Did you factory reset it? Or it just booted like that. Looks like its in some sort of Clock Work Recovery or soft bricked which is not a big deal. Someone here will help you out soon as i am not a Pro on recovery. Same thing happened to me when i bought a Galaxy S2 a few months back. Just hang tight until some one gives you directions or search the forums.
Try and "Reboot" it while highlighted by hitting the power button. Thats at least how i reboot out of clock work mod for the Att version. Next step prob would be to highlight wipe data/factory reset. But again wait until someone confirms this for ya. Shouldn't be long
Just curious, what did you trade for
all good got it figured out. thanks

Nope. Wiped data before updating. Figured it would be best to give the update a fresh start.

Yep, getting the exact same thing on every reboot, seems to cause a delayed boot, im on the latest androwook, did all the wipes on twrp recovery and everything, its a bugger, as it slows down my bootup.
Doesnt seem to be a solution, ive tried a dalvik and cache wipe but the problem persists, ill go as far as saying that doing a dalvik wipe is what initiates it, as i dont ever remember getting it, when ive restored my apps through titanium, essentilly installing the apps as if ive installed them individually over a period of time
Ive been restoring the data portion (apps, widgets, settings, launcher) from my latest twrp backup after every rom flash.........always comes back when i do it that way, reckon i backed up the *issue* aswell.
I think its got to do with something on that side of things, a script or something not getting updated to reflect that the scan was already done *shrugs*
Started happening to me after I did a custom rom install. Any of you guys go back and forth between stock and custom? Still a newb at this but maybe Asus knows and there's something it can't update?

[Q] [HELP] [WTSR/SMPL] Bricked SGSII by removing Gmaps

Hey guys,
Pretty desperate here, and I've been searching the forums and other pages on the web for a solution, but nothing yet.
I'm afraid I did something pretty stupid. I wanted to update Gmaps, but Play Store gave me the 'not signed correctly, please delete older version' message. So I tried to uninstall the old Gmaps through Settings, but that didn't work.
Than I had this 'brilliant' idea to just hardcore delete Gmaps through Titanium Backup. Well, I did and... BOOM! Black screen, a short boot loop and after that... nothing.
I took out the battery for about 15 minutes and placed it back in, and now I get this weird message saying 'WTSR/SMPL'.
Phone won't start up in Recovery, only Download mode.
Somebody can help me out here?

Flash a stock rom in download mode with Odin, clean slate. Then re-root your phone & you can restore a backup (if you have one).

Thanks for your response so quick, appreciate it.
BTW, are you sure there is no other way? Did you see this WTSR message before?
No probs. No, I've never seen it. But thinking logically; you have no recovery, the phone won't boot normally & you can only get into download mode. You don't really have any other option other than the one I suggested, do you ?

Not sure. The weird thing is: when I press the home button repeatedly, the screen starts flickering from white to black and back. So there's still something alive, don't you think?

Camera - Black screen or fuzzy white lines?

I have a problem. Camera wont work. Most of the time its a black screen and other times it kinda works but i get the image below, and it takes pics like that but you cant view them. I removed apps that I have installed since I noticed this and nothing. Any ideas on this? I looked everywhere for about 2 weeks now. Not sure what to do....?
If a factory reset from the settings menu is recommended... what exactly happens to the custom ROM and kernel? Do they need to be reinstalled or...?
Running Shostock 2.5.6 And AJ 1.25s
And if this is not the place to post this... please tell me where? Thanks everyone!

Replacing the camera module doesnt work. Does the same thing. Any ideas? I doubt it since I have gotten ZERO replies. Was hoping at least ONE person on here has had this problem... guess not. Thanks anyway everyone!
I wonder if it's the kennel you're using. AJK 1.25s is pretty old, and while it is the Samsung version I can't remember if it's for the ICS version you're running; maybe AJ can pop in and reeducate me.
Anyway, a quick test would be to nandroid and flash the rom again without changing the kernel, then see if that solves your problem.
One other thing, don't factory reset from the settings menu, always do these things from the custom recovery.

I just flashed Shostock 3.0.2 the other day without flashing a kernel before I changed the camera module... same result. Thanks for the tip on factory reset.
